passion to engage Myself in,where do i start from?

A blessed nation with a visionless leadership

His words=His actions

poster has a point.

Thank God,we still have people that believe this is inhumane,with all the risk and hazards this guys are expose to for 75k some people still think airtel have the right to reduce salary by 60%.Some of us are just after winning through legal means not looking at the moral implication/how it will affect people negatively.
For those supporting Airtel,please find time to know the risks(e.g Acoutic disorder) nd hazards this guys go through for 75k.

this report is confirmed,the workers are going back after meeting between all stakeholder's( including airtel top management,) while negotiation will continue to arrived at a lasting solution.

when  Airtel tookover,spanco/techmehindra was to take over the Management of the call center,they were ready to absorb this workers from HRIndexx/CCSNL/Bazaleel,but unfortunately they were willing to absorb but under a harsh condition of service(which was made known just days to 30th september) that is worst than what this guys were enjoying zain day's.The contarct staffs are willing to work but not on 30k salary.
This indians promised to absorbed them when they tookover,and promised their will no be increase in salary untill they have achieved stability but days to the expiration of the contract with HRIdexx/CCSNL/Bazaleel they cameup with other isue's that were never part of thier plan when they came in.

The contract with the call center agents expired because they fail to accept the following:
1. No one can accrue more than or go on more than 6 days annual leave.
2. Work six(6) days a week for 8 hours per day.
3. Accept a 60% salary deduction.
4. Accept a 50% staff downsizing.
5. No incentives
This worker have been with the company for over 2years on the same salary.
Airtel and Spanco are sister companies so anything spanco/techmehindra is doing airtel is fully aware of.

Haba Indians!

29k in the nations Capital?

And they expect quality from their staffs,this cannot be achieved.

This Guys are cruel.

Mystery in the Holy Quran

Very interesting findings of Dr. Tariq Al Swaidan might grasp your attention:

Dr.Tariq Al Swaidan discovered some verses in the Holy Qur'an that mentioned one thing is equal to

another, i, e. men are equal to women.

Although this makes sense grammatically, the astonishing fact is that the number of times the word

man appears in the Holy Qur'an is 24 and number of times the word woman appears is also 24,

therefore not only is this phrase correct in the grammatical sense but also true mathematically,

I, e. 24 = 24.

Upon further analysis of various verses, he discovered that this is consistent throughout the whole

Holy Qur'an where it says one thing is like another.

See below for astonishing result of the words mentioned number of times in Arabic

Holy Qur'an:

Dunia (one name for life) 115.

Aakhirat (one name for the life After this world) 115

Malaika (Angels) 88 .Shayteen (Satan) 88

Life 145 ,  Death 145

Benefit 50 ,  Corrupt 50

People 50 ,  Messengers 50

Eblees (king of devils) 11 . Seek refuge from Eblees 11

Museebah (calamity) 75 ,  Thanks 75

Spending (Sadaqah) 73 ,  Satisfaction 73

People who are mislead 17 ,  Dead people 17

Muslimeen 41 ,  Jihad 41

Gold 8 ,  Easy life 8

Magic 60,  Fitnah (dissuasion, misleading) 60

Zakat (Taxes Muslims pay to the poor) 32 , 

Barakah (Increasing or blessings of wealth) 32

Mind 49 ,  Noor 49

Tongue 25 ,  Sermon 25

Desite 8 ,  Fear 8

Speaking publicly 18 ,  Publicising 18

Hardship 114 ,  Patience 114

Muhammed 4 ,  Sharee'ah

Muhammed's teachings 4

Man 24. Woman 24

And amazingly enough have a look how many times the following words appear:

Salat 5, Month 12, Day 365,

Sea 32, Land 13

Sea + land =

32+ 13= 45

Sea = 32/45*100q.= 71.11111111%

Land = 13/45*100 = 28.88888889%

Sea + land 100.00%

Modern science has only recently proven that the water covers

71, 111% of the earth, while the land covers 28, 889%.

Is this a coincidence? Question is that

Who taught Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) all this?

Reply automatically comes in mind that

ALMIGHTY ALLAH taught him.

Usisky is here again!

With his concept of one world religion,

He says follow the quran alone and neglect the sunna,He tell his followers to pray 2 unit for Fajr prayer,Zuhr and Asr 4 units ,3 units magrib and 4

for Isha'i prayers and yet he said authentic sunnah should not be followed.

He said Man can only be held accountable for his action when he attains the age of 40,if he dies before 40,he goes straight to heaven.

He claimed He knows the date of Yaumal kiyama

His followers base everything in the Quran with his miracle 19 concept ,everything in the Quran must conform to 19 before it will be believed.

May Allah guide us to the right path as this should be the fitna Muslims should collectively fight by educating the ummah because they are enemies

within trying too deviate Naive muslims from finding guidance.

Usisky is here again!


Anyone who dies before the age of 40 goes to paradise?

This guys cannot even take care of their staffs but are paying millions to this guys(kanu and 2face) for talent hunt.
As i'm typing this, all airtel contact points(Shops,call centers, ) have closed down,why?welfare issue's.monkey dey work bamboo they chop.

Its unfortunate!My schoolmate that works in the Call center in Abuja informed me that his last month(MAY) salary has not been paid,and the Management is not giving any reason as to why their was a delay in the payment salary.Its only in Nigeria that things like this happen,its only here that things like this are happening and the government is not even aware that a big company like Airtel that is making huge profit from Nigerais is refusing to give its staff what rightly belong to them,they are not asking for any thing but reward for labour,how do you expect someone working for 74k in a month who has not been paid for 48days today to put in his best?.

Staff of Airtel Nigeria Abuja office accuse the company of imposing unfriendly labour polices ON its Nigerian workers. - By George Emine
Less than one year after the acquisition of Zain Nigeria by Bharti Airtel Ltd, crisis is brewing between the management of the company and the workers. Spanco, an Indian business processing outsourcing, BPO firm which was contracted by the new owner, Bharti Airtel Ltd, to handle customer service is having a running battle with staff of the company in the Abuja office.   
The workers are accusing Spanco of inhuman treatment and other unfriendly labour policies.  The staff believe that working conditions were much better under Zain when two indigenous companies, HR Index and CCNL Nigeria were in charge of customer relations. Investigations by this magazine revealed that as soon as Spanco took over from HR Index and CCNL Nigeria, one of the very first things they did was to dismiss without any reason, all pregnant women at that time. 
The worse hit are staff in the customer care unit. Before Spanco took over the human resources of the company, the workers were entitled to three days off every week.  This was reduced to two days when Spanco took over; the staff were recently notified that this will be further reduced to one day. The duty hours, which  were suppose to come down since the off duty days have been reduced, have however, been jacked up. The workers are expected to be on duty for 10 hours as against seven hours previously with only one hour break. A staff of the department who craved anonymity told this magazine that this is taking its toll on his colleagues.
In what seems like an utter disregard to the previous structure, Spanco has decided to jettison the earlier work arrangement where team leaders supervised the staff under their care.  This is no longer the case; team leaders now take calls like every staff. “They don’t have  any regard for us.  The only people they treat as human beings are their fellow Indians, as if we the Nigerian staff are slaves, just to be used and dumped,” Newsworld was told.
The workers are also complaining of harsh working conditions. Hundreds of workers in a crowded hall are not provided with adequate ventilation and air conditioners when there is power outage as the management complain of high cost of diesel to fuel their generator sets. 
This magazine gathered that the workers are facing a bleak future with the planned transfer of the customer care centre to Ogun State. This may mean laying off staff in the Abuja office because the company is not prepared to pay transfer allowances to the workers.
There is a disparity in the salary of the workers. Old staff who were employed by HR Index and CCNL Nigeria, were paid N75, 000 while the new one, engaged by Spanco collect N40, 000. The old staff believe this is an orchestrated plan by Spanco to frustrate them out of work so as to employ new staff they will pay pittance. 
“They are doing all these to make sure we get frustrated and leave their work for them.  If I leave now, the person they will employ to take over from me will be paid only N40, 000, almost half of what I am earning.  So you see why they want to make things difficult for us.”  He blamed the problem on the unemployment situation in the country.
To make the matter worse for the workers, the company does not allow them to form a union. Every worker is dealt with  as an individual and not as a member of a group. But the workers have started mobilising against the unfriendly policies through text messages. One of such messages read: “Please don’t be scared to say NO to Spanco’s 10 hrs, don’t agree to be tied down for long hours. The extra hours is what gives us time to do other stuff to compensate the salary as we cannot depend on the low sum.  Cost of living in Abuja is high!  If you do not act and it is implemented, the work conditions will get increasingly worse.  If the schedule is published, teams working will not log on; a peaceful way to say NO until it is reviewed.  Don’t try sabotage because you want to find favour because you think you will be promoted.  You will not be treated differently.  Please be wise, let’s all work together!  We CAN!  BB and sms to as many contacts and groups, Spanco IT agents and team leaders, as possible.  The sooner this sms gets to management, the better.  Please, keep it moving.”
Some members of  staff who spoke with this magazine have vowed to resist any further poor or unhealthy labour policies.  “We will not surrender, but we will resist any inhuman treatment.  It is time someone said enough is enough.  If it is in their own country is this the way they will treat their workers?  So why will they deliberately want to subject us to slavery?” 
In a statement, Pravin Kumar, chief executive officer, CEO, of the company had noted that “Our relationships with customers are generally life long ones; we invest heavily in building capabilities and then create sustainable models which are replicable. We intend to adopt this approach in Africa.” Is this applicable to the workforce as well?
The company said it is planning to invest $20 million and employ 10,000 people across Africa in three years. Airtel has presence in seven African countries including Kenya, Nigeria, Uganda, Democratic Republic of Congo, DRC and Tanzania but its unfriendly labour policies may bring it into confrontation with labour unions.
Attempts to speak with the head of the corporate department proved abortive as he was not on seat.
